The Avalanche are in the playoffs for the seventh consecutive year after beating the Nashville Predators 7-4 and nabbing a point in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Rangers. Nathan MacKinnon's historic home point streak technically ended, even though he directly set up a goal because the NHL is nonsense, but he's back in the lead for the Art Ross with a 4 point against Nashville. Mikko Rantanen hits 100 points, Cale Makar has the most assists for Avs player in a season, and so many other milestones and events over the last two games to fit in one episode description. Finally, answering your mailbag questions, including Georgiev's future in Colorado.Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

The nine game winning streak for the Avalanche comes to an abrupt end in a loss to the Montreal Canadiens, but on the heels of a historic 4-0 comeback over the Pittsburgh Penguins, is it even worth taking anything away from that bizarre end to the winning streak. Nathan MacKinnon's home point streak continues, and he has now passed Joe Sakic for the all-time franchise record for points in a season. Finally, Christian's torture of eating McDonalds before every game finally comes to an end, or has it?Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

Eight wins in a row for the Avalanche as they embarrass the Columbus Blue Jackets with a 6-1 win. A three point night for Mikko Rantanen as he approaches 100 points, a historic point streak extended for Nathan MacKinnon, and Cale Makar still doing Cale Makar things. We exist in a golden era of the Avalanche, and it's very easy to forget that sometimes. With the playoffs around the corner, don't forget to take a moment to appreciate that. Even still, what is the ideal combination for the top six as the playoffs approach?

The Avalanche have won seven games in a row after knocking off the St. Louis Blues on the back of a Mikko Rantanen hat trick, sweeping the four game road trip and making it very clear how big of a problem they are in the West. Is this team making you feel similar to 2022 after this road trip? Also, Kovalenko is finally in Colorado at long last! But, he is still banged up and will have to wait even longer to make his debut. Where will he fit in when he finally does?

The Colorado Avalanche have sent a loud and clear message to the rest of the Western Conference with a 3-2 overtime win over the Edmonton Oilers in the game of the year, and a 4-3 comeback over the Vancouver Canucks that showed that this Avs team exists on a different level. The trade deadline acquisitions have all been incredible fits in Colorado, Sean Walker chief among them with two goals against Edmonton. If this team stays healthy, is there a team that can beat them four times in a playoff series?Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

The Avalanche will never be healthy, and now they've lost Logan O'Connor for the rest of the season and playoffs due to hip surgery. It's a heartbreaking loss, but the Avs positioned themselves at the trade deadline to survive it and hopefully not miss a beat. Regardless, the Avalanche smoked the Calgary Flames with a 6-2 win on the road, with very few flaws to speak of as the stars dominate and the new guys already look like a perfect fit. Can they continue it on the second half of a back to back in Vancouver? Also, are the Stars just not all that after blowing a lead to Florida, or are the Panthers just all that?Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

The trade deadline has come, and the Colorado Avalanche are definitively better than they were this time last week. Three more trades came through as the Avalanche acquired Yakov Trenin and Brandon Duhaime to round out their bottom six, and put the finishing touches on a true Stanley Cup contending roster. The reinforcements have fully arrived with Val Nichushkin's return to the lineup and the debut of all four new additions to the roster, taking down the Minnesota Wild in overtime, complete with Nichushkin scoring the winner. Finally, looking around the league after the trade deadline concludes.Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

The Avalanche really did it. The Colorado Avalanche have traded Bo Byram to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Casey Mittelstadt, at long last solving their need at second line center for the foreseeable future, but at the cost of a beloved player in Byram. But not just that, the Avs set that deal up by acquiring Sean Walker from the Philadelphia Flyers for Ryan Johansen and a 2025 1st Round pick, opening the space to move Byram and freeing up cap space. These blockbusters drastically change the outlook of the Avalanche for both the rest of this season and the future, so where do they stand now as the dust settles on MacFarland's ballsiest moves ever?

The Avalanche took care of the Blackhawks with another 5-0 shutout win, but really disappointed with a 5-1 loss in Nashville against the Predators that squandered their recent momentum. The road performances are a big problem, and the lack of drive in the third period was incredibly baffling. Justus Annunen has ended the trade talks for a backup goalie, is there any conversation he could start in goal? The trade deadline is essentially here, and when you have Nathan MacKinnon performing at this level, you can't waste it with half-in, half-out moves.

Kurtis MacDermid has been traded to the New Jersey Devils, ending an era of greatness in Colorado. According to Christian at least. With this deal freeing up space, what are the Avalanche gearing up to do with the trade deadline less than a week away? Also, the Avalanche smoked the Blackhawks in Chicago and finally have some good vibes rolling their way with two wins in a row and Val's return on the horizon.

Val Nichushkin is back. The best news the Avs could possible receive before the trade deadline has come true, and Nichushkin has returned to practice with the team for a return in the near future. Finally, their top six is rounding into form at the right time. The Avalanche also took down the Stars in a dominant 5-1 win on home ice, closing the gap in the division race and potentially hitting a turning point after a tough stretch.

The momentum could not get carried over from two wins in a row, and the Avalanche have dropped two in a row once again, losing 2-1 in overtime to the Red Wings and 4-3 to the Maple Leafs on home ice. The effort is there, but once again it is the details and little mistakes that are killing this team in critical moments. In ten games after the all star break, 3-5-2 is not enough in the most important stretch of the season. What will it take to get this back on track before the playoffs?

Home cooking did the Avalanche some good as they pick up two straight wins over the Arizona Coyotes and Vancouver Canucks, that they had to go out and earn in weird, playoff style games. Ryan Johansen is on his redemption arc with two straight solid games, and Georgiev gave the Avalanche the saves they need to pull off the wins. Can they push this to a real winning streak by hitting the road against Detroit?

This god awful road trip is finally over, ending in a frustrating 6-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning with defensive breakdowns galore wasting an otherwise solid performance. 1-4-1 on this road trip won't cut it, and it's time for some serious questions to be asked in the locker room. Will any trades fix this team when breakdowns are becoming common and winning on the road becoming impossible?

This road trip has not been fun for the Avalanche, but they were able to get on the board with a 6-3 win over the Washington Capitals, which was sorely needed following a rock bottom 4-0 shutout loss to the Florida Panthers over the weekend. Can they end the road trip on a positive note and beat the Tampa Bay Lightning before heading home? Ryan Johansen is once again a topic of conversation following a demotion to the fourth line, is it even possible for him to be here post trade deadline?

Halfway through the longest road trip of the season and the Avalanche have yet to pick up a single win, and after an embarassing effort in a 5-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes, some questions need to be asked before things fall off the rails. Georgiev regressed badly after a good stretch, and the stars were held off the board again. What will it take to turn this around? Also, is the Coyotes time in Arizona coming to an end?

The All Star break is over and the Avs have not picked up where they left off, dropping two in a row to start the six game road trip. Fresh off a frustrating loss to the Devils that saw a third period comeback fall apart at the last second, the Avs still have their explosive potential, but the details have not returned from the break yet. The return against the Rangers was better, and most importantly, Georgiev looks to be rounding into form.

Nathan MacKinnon is greatness incarnate, and following a second four goal game with a natural hat trick against the Capitals, it's time we really sit on reflect on how special he is. Zach Parise is now a member of the Avalanche after so many years in Minnesota, what can we expect him to bring to the depth after the All Star Break?

Some much needed rest and reinforcements are on the horizon for the Avalanche as the All Star break approaches, but good vibes still surround this team following a 7-4 win over the Flyers and an overall successful five game road trip.

The Avalanche fell to the Bruins 5-2 after falling behind early, and their exhausted star players unable to make up the difference. Will getting healthy be enough to support the stars once again? Another game sub .900 for Georgiev raises even more questions about the Avalanche's goaltending and what they plan to do at the deadline to support him. Is Marc-Andre Fleury a reasonable option.

The news is piling up for the Avalanche as of late, even more so on the heels of three games in Canada against Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa. First and foremost though, Val Nichushkin enters the player assistance program and will be out indefinetly, and we would like to take the time to wish him all the best during the process. During the road trip, the Avalanche came back from a 3-0 deficit against the Maple Leafs in a gutsy win, couldn't get the saves against the Canadiens, and gave Justus Annunen the goal support he needed in his season debut against the Senators.

It's hard to imagine a better game for the Colorado Avalanche as they took down the Vegas Golden Knights with a 3-0 shutout, and next to no negatives to speak of in such a perfect performance. With just a few more adjustments and getting back to full health, the Avs could be the Stanley Cup favorites with performances like this.

It's officially the halfway point of the season, and the Avalanche are currently top five in the league and off to the fourth best start in franchise history. Bouncing back from poor goaltending in a 8-4 loss to the Panthers, the Avs knocked off the Bruins in a shootout with one of their most complete games of the season. Around the league, William Nylander's new contract is bad news for Mikko Rantanen's upcoming extension, and Cutter Gauthier forcing a trade out of Philadelphia is easily the most interesting story of this NHL season.Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

The Avalanche took down the Dallas Stars 5-4 with an overtime win, complete with another third period multi-goal comeback. Nathan MacKinnon has further staked his claim to the Hart trophy, but he's covering up some issues with this team right now that need to be fixed by the trade deadline. But yet, the Avalanche are currently top three in the league. The first batch of all-stars has been named, and not everybody is thrilled.

The Avalanche started 2024 on the right foot, overcoming shaky goaltending and bad bounces to complete a comeback over the New York Islanders with a 5-4 OT win. Nathan MacKinnon is the best player in the world and deserves to be treated as such, but the rest of this team, especially defense seems to be rounding into form at last.

What is this team's real form? Even after all the frustration with this team, the Avalanche still sit first place in the Central and only a few wins back of first place in the entire NHL.

It's a Merry Christmas for the Avalanche after two straight wins over the Ottawa Senators and Arizona Coyotes. Nathan MacKinnon pushed his point streak to eighteen games in a row, and should easily be the leading Hart candidate at this point of the season.

Consistency and injuries are plaguing the Avalanche right now more than ever following a 3-2 loss to the league worst Chicago Blackhawks. Officiating did them no favors, but they put themself in that position with sloppy play and disappearing acts outside of the top line. With no Makar to hide issues the last three games, it's becoming more clear that there's more work to be done on this roster before the trade deadline, both with adding and subtracting players from the lineup. What could those options be, and how realistic can that be? Welcome to The Tell It Avs It Is Podcast, your home for everything Colorado Avalanche on The Hockey Podcast Network!

Tomas Tatar's time in Colorado is over, having now been traded to the Seattle Kraken in exchange for a 2024 5th round pick. Is there another move coming as a result? Where does this leave the Avalanche in the meantime? In game notes, the Avalanche defeated the Buffalo Sabres 5-1 in Erik Johnson's emotional return to Colorado, and saw the emergence of Sam Malinski. However, Cale Makar's minutes were limited, and missed practice again. It's time to consider putting a stop to this and get him back to 100%.

The Avalanche saved themselves from disaster, pulling out a 6-5 win over after being down 5-3 to the Calgary Flames out from the jaws of defeat to end their slide following a 5-2 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers. Tomas Tatar finally scored a goal, Mikko Rantanen's drought is over, and MacKinnon continues to dominate. But should we just forget how the Avs got themselves in that position to need a comeback in the first place? Is there cause for concern with Alex Georgiev as we approach the 30 game mark of the season?

The same problems for the Avalanche continue as they put the lines in a blender due to injuries, and sneak by the Ducks before watching too many mistakes cost them an important game against the Jets. Nathan MacKinnon is back to his dominant ways, but Mikko Rantanen is very not, and the Avalanche need that fire back from him soon. With the top line still getting well over 25 minutes a night, there are clearly some changes that need to be made. Who's going to be left on the inevitable chopping block?

The Avalanche go winless on the west coast road trip, but still bring home two points with a shootout loss to Anaheim, and running out of gas against the Kings the next day. At the end of the day, Colorado needs more from MacKinnon and Rantanen, especially if Makar is out. Even if their point production has been fine, the domination has not been there for awhile. What could be the recipe for unlocking that level from them again, and getting more from your second line?

The Avalanche's win streak ends in Arizona against the Coyotes with a 4-3 overtime loss, in only the second overtime game of the season.

Friday bore witness to the most embarrassing loss in the history of this core, an 8-2 loss to the St. Louis Blues on home ice that saw them completely give up, and Coach Bednar question their effort. However, the Avalanche had the perfect get right game in their season finale against the Seattle Kraken, ending their road slump and getting some key players on the board in a 5-1 victory.

The Avalanche are taking care of business as the season gets underway, starting at an undefeated 4-0 after getting revenge in their first rematch with the Seattle Kraken after a 4-1 win, and smothering the Chicago Blackhawks and Connor Bedard in their first of many matchups with a 4-0 shutout.
